Falz’s song, ‘This is Nigeria’, released in June 2018, met criticism among some Muslim faithful.

The song is a parody of American rapper, Childish Gambino’s ‘This Is America’.

MURIC criticised Falz’s ‘This Is Nigeria’ music video, saying the “video manifests ethnic bias against Fulanis while it ignored the criminal activities of ethnic militia of the Middle Belt who have also massacred Fulanis.”

The Muslim group threatened to sue the ‘Child of the World’ singer to court if he did not take down the video.

Like Gambino, Falz’s parody addresses essential national issues ranging from politics, religion, social vices and insecurity.
